Discussion of climate, how it is changing, activism around that, the politics, and the energy systems change we need in order to stabilize things.
As a starting point, the burning of fossil fuels, and to a lesser extent deforestation and release of methane are responsible for the warming in recent decades:

It’s not really milk.
We should just call it pea. Already reminds us of a liquid.
Ahh yes give me your finest cup of pea.
Tea sir, what kind may I ask?
Heather, scum. I said pea... Do you not understand?
This seems to show that coconut milk is better and uses barely any water. Also, it's coconut milk, which is lovely.
I had some pea chocolate milk and it was pretty okay. Think almond and oat taste better but it's not the worse (that's soy).
Almond and Oat have that "nutty" taste that works well with chocolate.
i find oat curdles a little bit when used in hot drinks though. Personally, i'm a soy boy
It's an ...acquired taste
My fiance has food allergies, including dairy & tree nuts (like almonds). Once she discovered pea milk she started making mashed potatoes again. It turns out coconut milk doesn't make a great choice. I don't remember why she doesn't like soy milk.
as the graph says, cow milk wins in both the greenhouse gas emissions and water usage metrics.
Not sure if this is meant as sarcastic?
